Oh snappaty snap, I guess it was a loan after all.

Everyone will exploit Ukraine, except Euro idiots. They are doing it for king and country. Such philanthropists such good men (my frarss) .
That article states that the $500 billion reference was removed, and "They removed all the clauses that did not suit us". So...what IS in this deal? It sounds like it is nothing more than a framework of a trade deal, considering that the details are stated to "remain to be worked out" and that the article makes it sound totally fuzzy.

Is this going to be another case where Trump gives away the house and claims it was a great deal?

Most likely, this will be written in such a mealy-mouthed way that both sides will claim that it does what they want, and it won't actually do anything because both sides have different understandings of what it does.
